I just noticed something on ESPN coverage......

They just ran the episode again(and again) where they reached the bubble of the main event. I noticed something in the background of the hand where the last player was eliminated. As the guy stands up one of the railbirds is holding the big "L" up to his forehead. I'm sure he was signaling to the masses that they have just got to the money, but..... if that was me and a bystander behind me did that all things considered I might have to drop him. How would you respond; same situation?

Greg's going to have to sacrifice the contents of his Big Gulp because I grab it and the obnoxious spectator gets it.

yeah, Im pretty sure he'd be down. I'd walk over to him, whisper "I'll buy you a new one in a sec" and douse that mofo with it.

What an ass.

I wouldn't notice, and neither would anyone else who posts in this thread. That's just not something you're going to see. If you go out on the bubble in the main event, my guess is you're barely noticing that you're alive.

you know you have a point.

Im pretty sure I'd go be upset somewhere

Yeah, you're probably right.

Even so, guy definitely deserves an Airplane drinking problem Big Gulp all at once.

I would look at him and say you know I just made about 300k for playing a card game right? And laugh my ass off at him.

Well if he was on the bubble he wouldn't have made any money at all so that probably wouldn't work.

With the knowledge that I would be shown on television being the last guy to bust out before the money and known as such for the next year, if some jackass is making the "loser" sign in my face, I'd either punish him right there, with cameras rolling, or take him outside to 1. beat the living sh*t out of him, 2. roll him, 3. use his money to get in a side game, in that order.
